PRLog -- This is not a self-help book about how to overcome fear. It is a serious examination of the power of fear in the human psyche and an acknowledgment of its inescapable reality. By examining its manifestation throughout the ages, from early Greek theatre to the invasion of Iraq, this book seeks to demonstrate the range of fear eternally present in our world. Politics, philosophy, drugs and cosmology are some of the subjects discussed and the references are extensive - from Shakespeare to Leonard Cohen via Eliot and Yeats, from Jefferson to Bush via Goethe and Goering, from Yahweh to Jung via Nietzsche and Freud. A stimulating and informative read for those who are not content to avoid reality.
